Dolph Lundgren is Open To Playing Cable in DEADPOOL 2

Dolph Lundgren doesn't know much about superhero films, but he thinks he could make a good Cable. Speaking in an interview with Nerdist, Lundgren said he hasn't seen the first film, but he saw a picture of Cable and thinks he could pull off the role:

“That’s a good question. I haven’t watched a lot of these superhero movies; for some reason, I don’t know, I’m just busy making films. I did hear in…Deadpool, isn’t there a character named Cable that’s coming? Like, he’s a big guy? I guess I could kick some butt doing that, I suppose. We’ll see. When I saw the picture, he looks a little bit like Ivan Drago mixed with Gunner Jensen mixed with…I don’t know.”

The interviewer seemed wayyy more excited about the prospect than Lundgren, but maybe that's just Lundgren. Here's the big question though: could he do it? It's a little more than clear Lundgren isn't huge into the superhero genre (despite playing the title role in the original Punisher), but does the character Cable lend itself to his natural acting strengths? I actually think so! I could be dead wrong though, and I welcome your correction in the comments.
